Ashton showed a faint, sincere smile, their moved in a blur, leaving an afterimage behind.

In the next instant, he appeared beside Eden and wrapped an arm around her slender waist. The touch was still soft and smooth. Her body jolted, like she’d been shocked. Vivid images from last night surfaced in her mind without warning. She bit her lip and glared at Ashton as a surge of otherworldly realm power burst from within her, blasting him away.
She looked at him coldly and snapped, “Don’t think I won kill you!”
“Is this how you treat your savior?” Ashton asked with a mocking smile. “Is this how you treat your… Master?”
Upon hearing the word “master”, Eden’s expression darkened with shame and anger.
Just as she was about to strike, he quickly waved his hands and said, “Ms. Morrow, I’m not trying to provoke you. I’m just reminding you that everything that happened was your own choice.
“Think about it. If you truly didn’t want it, you had other ways to refuse. In fact, you were the one who took the initiative last night. And halfway through, you were the more eager one. I only followed your lead…”
Her chest heaved as she shouted, “Shut up!”

She hadn’t expected him to be this shameless.
“I won’t kill you, only because you saved me and the city. But you’re not welcome here. If you insist on staying, don’t blame me for what I do next.”
She had already made her decision and would never submit to him. Everything that happened would be treated as nothing more than a dream, and it had to end tonight.
“I’ll leave the city, but not before you become my woman,” Ashton said firmly. “I’ll take control of the city, and you’ll join me against the Heavenly Medical Pavilion.”
He hadn’t forgotten why he came to Zolane. Half of that purpose was done. All that remained was to make Eden submit to him.
“You want me to be your woman? Do you really think you’re worthy?” she asked. “You don’t actually think saving me and sleeping with me gives you the right to make me submit to you?”
She added coldly, “Leave now while you can still do so with some dignity. Don’t force me to attack you, and push me to a point where there’s no turning back. You should learn when to quit.”
Ashton smiled and replied, “If I leave now, do you honestly think you can handle the retaliation of the Heavenly Medical Pavilion alone? You’ve seen how they do things. They are ruthless. You know better than anyone what will happen once the city
falls into their hands.”
Eden frowned and asked, “What exactly is your purpose for coming here?”
“To sleep with you and breakthrough to the next level, then take control of Zolane with you and deal with the Heavenly Medical Pavilion,” he answered, looking at her with a sincere expression.
She met his gaze and snorted. “At least you’re honest. But I’m telling you now that you will not succeed. If you won’t leave, I’ll make you. As for the Heavenly Medical Pavilion’s retaliation, that’s none of your concern.”
Ashton sighed at her stubbornness. It seemed sleeping with her once wasn’t enough. He would have to do
“Fine,” he said, staring at Eden’s flawless face. “But I still have my own reasons to stay.”
